Locations will be represented by familiar WarCraft locals, and I'm sure there will be plenty of interesting themed Chance and "Treasure" Chest cards as well. Blizzard is currently holding a contest on their Facebook page to vote for which six of the ten possible pieces will be used for the final version. The game will be in stores this May for $39.95.

The other reveal is "RISK: StarCraft":

Not as many details here, other than the fact that all three factions are playable along with six heroes (and hopefully with little plastic marines, zealots and zerglings) :) The game will come out sometime this summer for $49.45.

Hey! I happen to enjoy Monopoly! Not that I'd ever buy a branded edition. But Risk is awesome in all it's manifestations.

Risk Legacy is rad, Risk 2210 AD is alright, the rest... all shit. Especially the original, it's a broken game that involves rolling higher than your opponent nothing more. Depth and strategy of a coin toss that takes over 3 hours.

I look down at people who like Monopoly, you uncultured swine. It's like saying that See Jack Run is the best novel of all time, because it's the only book you have ever read. Bloody Savage.

We'll see who's the savage when I'm picking bits of your brain off of my shark-tooth ceremonial club!

Flash is pretty easy to pick up, especially for turn based stuff, most of the hard work comes in the graphics design.

The game rules are pretty damn simple, and it's insanely addictive, I'd find some nearby nerd friends and go for it. I've been thinking about carving a 3D miniature version myself just for shits and giggles.
